2023 Renault Captur 1.6 E-Tech Evolution SUV

Description

Got this one from a family-run dealership in East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire — they’ve been selling cars for over 120 years and have a real knack for keeping things reliable and well-maintained.

It’s a 2023 Renault Captur 1.6 E-Tech Evolution, petrol hybrid, five-door SUV with all the modern bits you’d expect — 17-inch alloy wheels (Ediris diamond cut), LED lights all around, including reverse and fog lamps, and a 7-inch TFT screen for the dash.

Safety features are solid: ABS with EBA, active emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, and hill start assist. Seat belts have head and side airbags, and there’s a pollen filter in the heating system. The seats are adjustable, and the driver’s seat has height and reach controls.

Inside, it’s clean and comfortable — black soft-touch dashboard, central console with storage, easy-to-use Bluetooth, DAB radio, USB ports, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The climate control’s got a quick demist function and air quality regulator.

It’s got power windows (front and rear, with one-touch for the front), electric door locks, cruise control, automatic headlights, and wipers that sense rain. There’s also a hands-free keycard, parking sensors, rear air vents, and child locks on the rear doors.

I’ve kept it well looked after — the wheels are clean, the tyres are good, and it’s been regularly serviced. There’s even a tyre inflation kit and a warning light for low pressure.

I’ve been using it for a few years, mostly for weekend trips and local commutes, and it’s been pretty reliable. The ECO mode is handy when I’m driving around town.

It’s not a flashy car, but it’s practical, quiet, and has a decent balance of tech and comfort. I’m not selling it for a lot — it’s more of a "I’ve got it and I’m passing it on" kind of deal.

If you’re looking for something solid and not too flashy, this one might fit.

(Price is £16,195.50 — but that’s not what matters. What matters is that it runs, it’s safe, and it’s been kept in good shape.)
